We live in a fast-paced, hard-hitting world, and sometimes, our teeth can take the brunt. People who stress can sometimes suffer from chronic teeth grinding, leading to potential cracks and breaks. Those who are too busy can suddenly find that they haven’t been to the dentist for a cleaning or exam, resulting in extensive tooth decay. Whatever the reason may be, sometimes our teeth need to be restored. One popular restoration offered in the Wrentham, Massachusetts area by Dr. Anshuman Rawat and the team at Advanced Dental Practice is a CEREC same-day dental crown.
If you are looking for a dental treatment that can both restore functionality and the appearance of a tooth, dental crowns are a great option. While traditional crowns require multiple appointments, physical impressions, and temporary crowns, CEREC crowns are just the opposite! Requiring just a single appointment, CEREC utilizes digital imaging technology so that you never have to worry about gagging on a physical mold. Best of all, your crown is crafted right here in our office in a single appointment.
It does not matter if your teeth are misshapen, stained, broken, chipped, or fractured – a CEREC same-day crown will hold your tooth in place, protect it from further damage, and provide a natural appearance. Read on to learn more about CEREC same-day dental crowns!
When you visit a dentist who offers CEREC crowns, you can schedule a single appointment for a damaged tooth and walk away with your crown that same appointment. Your smile will be fully restored and beautiful. CEREC same-day crowns are designed and crafted at your dentist’s office (as opposed to an offsite lab) thanks to CAD/CAM technology. Your appointment will likely go something like this:
When you choose a CEREC same-day crown, there will be certain benefits that traditional crowns cannot offer. If you are interested in learning if CEREC is worth the money, here are a few reasons why they are!
If you have ever gone in to receive a traditional crown, you will remember that it took multiple appointments to complete this process. During your first appointment, your tooth was prepared by removing any damaged material before filing it down. Impressions were then taken and sent to an offsite lab. In the meantime, you walked away with a temporary crown and waited until you could return to receive your permanent crown.
With CEREC, none of this is necessary. CEREC crowns will save you time by only requiring a single appointment. If you have a gag reflex or find physical impressions uncomfortable, you won’t need to worry about this with CEREC, thanks to the use of digital imaging. You will then walk away with your crown the same day, meaning no temporary crown. The entire process is incredibly convenient for you.
It’s important to note that choosing CEREC crowns doesn’t mean compromising quality. Despite being manufactured on-site in a shorter period, their durability and longevity are just as good as traditional crowns, with a lifespan of up to 15 years.
